I am thoroughly shocked a comment about getting to once a week isn’t the top starred post.

Using Google Earth, I noticed there appear to be three fountains in the pond, and one is right over the car.

Just my personal experience, but every time I see one of these lists, I want them to add “Be the offspring of the owners” at the top.

Phillips just updated their bridge with Apple Homekit support, so all the old packages with the out of date bridge are popping up on sale.

Reminds me of the 2005 short “Dealbreaker” directed by Gwyneth Paltrow. Wish I could still find a link to share.

In light of evil week, brute force is always one option. One of my sons was so against pooping in the toilet, he gave himself impacted bowls. It was to the point where he couldn’t eat any more because of the backup. The solution was to put on a rubber glove with some petroleum jelly and help the process along. It only…

Or invite real friends over because you want to learn to cook something new and thought it might be fun to do it as a group.

Crappers. I finished my A.S. degree in 96 without any debt. I’m currently working on the B.S. part time with an expected finish in 2018. I will never be able to retire.

I recently learned you can withdraw contributions from Roth IRA’s penalty free. (Earnings are a different story.) Why don’t more people use that savings device for their emergency fund? Returns should be much higher than a savings account or a CD.

I assume this is based on retiring today, so you’ll need to calculate inflation for the number of years you have until retirement. At an average of 3.22% these figures pretty much double by the time I’ll be 65 in 25 years.

Truer words have never been written.

Some areas have laws that limit tax increases. My home has a 3% annual tax increase cap. I’m currently paying about 25% less in property taxes than the assessed value says I should be paying.

My drill press is resting on top of my table saw in the back of my garage behind the dozen other things I use more frequently.

I like to ask prospective employers, “Why is this position open?” One time I asked this question in an interview at a then top-5 accounting firm, I learned the pressure had been too much for the previous manager, and I would be supervising her if selected. In other words, I’d have to manage someone who would…

I’m in Nevada, an hour out of Vegas. Summers top out at 115+, but we’ve also had extend periods well below freezing in the last few years.

I wonder how the plumber bill for repairing burst pipes figures into the space heater savings? Just shutting off your heat has consequences beyond saving money.

Or put half the water in one pot, and half in another. Turn both burners on high and combine when they are both at temp.

Thank you for some timely advice. We have some unanticipated expenses coming up. I didn’t know I could raid my Roth IRA contributions without penalty. That nugget of wisdom may have just saved me a lot of sleepless nights.

Seriously, there’s got to be a “Does a bear shit in the woods?” joke in here somewhere.

I love the “lifehack” fixes that are more expensive than just doing it right the first time.
